Jnr1114's audio Reviews on Newgrounds

[Corridors]

Pretty Simple

Awesome sound, but it is is simple.

Is that you on the guitar?

Semikiller responds:

Thanks dude. Simple isn't bad right? Yup that's me.

[~ GLaDOS' Fantasy ~ [CAT]]

Very Nice

The thing I would change is the techno. It would sound good if it was only the piano and you changed the techno part to a different instrument. Otherwise, it is a very good melody.

Catstuffer responds:

Now whats the techno part? The synth line?? The baseline?? The percussion!?

But thanks for the review! :D

[~ Hamster Dance Trance Remix ~]

Awesome!

Awesome little beat. I like the trance effect in there, it sounds very good. What did you use?

Catstuffer responds:

Her Jnr1114! Long time, no reviews :( lol

I used FL Studio like always! Been tampering with my sounds quite a bit to get these effects.

Thanks for the review!

[~ Best 13 Seconds This Minute~]

NICE

Very good sounding. Well mastered. Awesome loop.

Catstuffer responds:

Thanks! Glad you like it!

Thanks for reviewing! :D

[By The Warmth Of The Moon]

Well Mastered

It's very well mastered like most of your songs. Unlike mine. . .
It's got a good set of instruments. Personally, I wouldn't change anything. It is fine the way it is. It's a little different. Like Jazzy sorta.

Nice work!

lidlurch responds:

yeah, i wanted to make an indie song, and it ended up sounding a little jazzy because of the chords i used. i really like it too, i just wish i could come up with some more ideas for it :P i might do a trombone solo, but once again, idk

thanks though!

[Jet Line Tradio -LS-]

Hm. . .

The Intro disturbs the whole song. Also the drums that come in are to "Clashy" and stand out for a fill, not a rythem.
Bag the intro and the drums and it would be a nice song!

Chomposaur responds:

hmmm i'll try that and see, i agree with the clashy thing however, this song is a bit messy, i think im gonna fix it up a bit when i get more time.

[FormingAnesthetic-lidlurch-]

Sick! :D

It's very well mastered. I few parts the drums sounded a little of. Just some of the fills. And the only other thing is the drums are a little to scratchy for my taste, but that is just me.

Excellent song, very well done!

-JNR

lidlurch responds:

well, they weren't off cuz i placed the notes, but u know, it was probably just the rythm. haha, i really liked the effect, but everyone has their tastes. thanks for the review!

[Deep Heavy ~lidlurch~]

Good Song

It's not really a song you'd go and listen to but it's perfect for any game or movie. It's very well mastered in my opinion.

Like I said, GREAT song but not something I'd go and listen to for fun. It just seems perfect for a video game as I said.

Nice work!

lidlurch responds:

thanks! yeah, i see what you mean...most of my music isn't stuff anybody would listen to :P but anyways, thanks for the review! i have gotten a ton better with my mastering/ editing skills, and make sure it's perfect before i put it on here, so thanks for noticing. once again, thanks!

[Dream Runner Revampd-lidlurch-]

It's great!

It's not really a song you'd go and listen to just cause you want music. It's more of a song to fir into something. Maybe like a game, or backround music for something. I liked it cause it was mastered pretty good. Nothing can be done to change this track, as it is unique, but I can't give it a 10 either.

I don't know to much about Garage Band but do you get to put in your own notes? Or just like patterns/loops?

4/5

lidlurch responds:

yeah, it's just a simple song i made a long time ago, but mastered really well recently, so i wouldn't expect much. i think i've gotten pretty good at editing though. well, if you have a midi keyboard, you need to record a few notes (doesn't matter what you do) then double click on the green section you just made. from there you can insert notes (or dashes on a piano roll) by holding down the command key, then clicking. you could probably figure out the rest. as for if you don't have a midi keyboard, i think you can use a piano roll that pops up on the screen when you initialy get on, or set it to your typing keyboard piano thingy...

[Serenity]

Good Base, but to dull.

I'd give you a 9 if it were more flexible. It's way to plain, like nothing happens. Put some "action" in your songs. Like different instruments and stuff. You'll get the hang of it, I promise. I can tell it won't take to long either.

I love the instrument, though. What did you use?

RayJones321 responds:

The instrument was Synthetic, it was merely the STR_Ensemble Soundfont, with Piano underlying it.

As for the song needing more "action", I must respectfully disagree. This song is not about Action. It is about emotion, more specifically, Love. I wanted people to be able to figure that out by themselves, but sooner or later I was going to have to tell someone. I see where you were getting that from - This song is NOTHING like my other submissions. In saying that it needs more instruments, I chose only the strings and the piano so that I had two instruments combining to become one Song of emotion, like Love. It's simplicity is, in my opinion, the Best way to present it.
Thanks for the review.
